Empty Nester s Winery, 338 Elmore St. in Lecompton, opened in January 2021 after being years in the making.
It is rare that I ever remember the ending of a story that begins with the question “What are we going to do with those 30 bottles of wine on the shelf?” But Troy Clark remembers the end of his story, and it actually is on display as a new winery in downtown Lecompton.
Clark and his wife, Vickie, have opened Empty Nester’s Winery in Lecompton, which of course, is in northwest Douglas County and about a 20-minute drive from Lawrence.
